Powered by the Conversation Risk Engine™

Before drafting your reply, Salag analyzes the message for rate erosion signals, indirect pressure, urgency framing, and scope expansion. Then it generates a response calibrated to your minimum rate, preferred tone, and working boundaries. No aggression. No guilt framing. No pressure tactics. Just professional clarity.

Pricing Pressure

Pricing pressure doesn't have to become conflict.

Most rate conversations fail not because of money, but because emotions replace structure.

We don't want to lose the client
We fear sounding arrogant or difficult

Healthy negotiation builds trust. Clear pricing conversations benefit everyone.

Better scope alignment
Fewer misunderstandings
